Leak Reveals Intel Roadmap to Rival 14-inch MacBook Pro [Video]

Intel's roadmap to rival the Apple 14-inch MacBook Pro has been leaked, revealing plans to launch better performing 15th Gen Arrow Lake CPUs by the end of 2023.

The roadmap was leaked by AdoredTV. Wccftech reports...

With Arrow Lake, it looks like Intel is prioritizing mobile over desktop first and while there will be both Arrow Lake-S and Arrow Lake-P CPUs, the company is aiming to specifically produce its 15th Gen mobility CPUs first to tackle Apple's next-generation MacBook 14" laptops. Based on the leaked roadmap, it looks like we will see the first engineering samples ready by late 2022 and early 2023 with QS chips shipping out in Q3 2023 and final production beginning the same quarter. And lastly, the CPUs will be ready for RTS (Ready To Ship) in Q4 2023. So this means we are looking at a late 2023 or early 2024 launch for the next-generation Arrow Lake mobility CPU lineup.




The processor appears have a 6+8 (performance / efficiency) core design using the brand new Lion Cove (P-Core) and Skymont (E-Core) made on TSMC's N3 process node. The iGPU is said to utilize a new tiled-architecture based on Battlemage graphics architecture featuring up to 320 Execution Units or 20 Xe-Cores.

While it's possible this chip could outperform the M1 in terms of power and efficiency, by the time it is released we'll likely be on to the Apple M3 chip, which will definitely have performance improvements of its own.
